Really?

Now our kids can finally learn!

Not to be outdone by North Carolina, the Trump Administration has moved on its top educational priority by reversing the Obama Administration's bathroom protections for transgender students.

How to help protect transgender student rights

Read Becoming Nicole: The Transformation of an American Family and Being Jazz: My Life as a (Transgender) Teen.

Connect with and support the National Center for Transgender Equality, the Human Rights Campaign's Parents for Transgender Equality Council, the Transgender Legal Defense and Education Fund, and New York's Sylvia Rivera Law Project and FIERCE.

Encourage your local school district to support transgender students even if the federal government won't.
